[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 671466, member: 18958"] I knew. But that was because I had a step father. Had it been my mother and sister, I would have stayed tied in, I think. It would have been all over for me. But my step-father was so sadistically cruel and my mother and sister so allied with him against me, that after about 12 years old it was as clear as a bell that I was in a world of hurt. Even still it was awfully difficult to separate from my mother, and I did not do it until I was about 28, even though I had left home a decade earlier. There was so much I had needed from her, that I wanted. I believe you that you did not know how strange was your family. But I would suspect it was a willful disbelief, so as to protect yourselves and them. Because they are all we have...until we learn that it is better without them. It is so, so sad. COPA [/QUOTE]
